State Farm® Insurance Agent James Carlton

"James and his team are amazing!!! They understand the importance of customer service better than most. We've been working with James for over a decade, and I can tell you from experience that he and the team are the type of people you want when it's time to file a claim. They have the experience and industry knowledge to help you navigate through those unexpected and often unpleasant life issues that pop up along the way. Switch to James---you won't regret it."

"I have been with several different State, Farm agents in different states and James. Carlton‘s office is by far the best. His staff, including Barbara, Mike, and Stephanie all go above and beyond all the time. They are very pleasant and genuine in their approach to answering questions no matter how simple or complex the situation is. I highly recommend them."

"Wonderful Agent! And extraordinary service! I needed my windshield replaced and my agent didn’t waste anytime getting a claim in and getting a technician out to my job in less than 48 hours. Both James and Steph are wonderful! 10/10, would totally recommend if you are shopping for a new agent or a new policy!"

"Hi, My name is Lamar. My wife and I have both used this team for years. Unfortunately this year has been a catastrophe for us, we went through some tremendous losses, lost both of our vehicles among other personal things. We were so stressed and practically didn't know what do. However, thanks for the team at the James Carleton branch and an amazing agent by the name of Stephanie we very much appreciate...came to save the day as if she lived in our neighborhood nextdoor. We are currently working through our struggles and hardships. Once everything is resolved we will continue using this team. Thank you guys!"

"These guys are AMAZING!!!! Barbara, Mike and their team went completely above and beyond to help us with a highly complicated situation - stemming from a very unpleasant experience with our old insurance provider. We needed coverage asap and they worked hard to get us covered with everything we needed. They were so patient and kind and the customer service was truly top notch!!! I would recommend this team to anyone and everyone!!!!"

"My daughter recently purchased a new vehicle. Having been a James Carlton client for two years now I expected the update to our policies would be a breeze, and it was. When I called I got right to Mike who was able to get a few details from me and take it from there. We have 4 drivers and he worked up the coverage to maximize our savings. I continue to be an extremely happy client and would recommend James Carlton State Farm to anyone."

"We previously used internet-based insurers exclusively for 10+ years, until we bought our house. And we could not be more grateful for our decision to switch to James Carlton. Like a ton of folks, we had two pipes burst on Christmas Eve. Our damage wasn’t significant, and we thought the house would be livable throughout it all. Wrong. With flooring ripped up, baseboards ripped out, and more than a dozen industrial fans running 24/7, we just couldn't stay. Within 15 minutes, James and his amazing team (Stephanie, in particular) ensured we were all set up with excellent temporary accommodations. It’s that level of service, personal touch, and genuine care that makes him exceptional. I’m still in a bit of shock to have had this pleasant of an experience with an insurance company throughout this process. It's worth the switch if you haven't already."

"@Stephanie Bachelder has been the most helpful support system working with me at Statefarm. Whether it’s my car, my property, or a quick question, she has had me covered the whole way. I’m quick to recommend Statefarm due to Stephanie, and really hope she gets the appreciation she deserves. You’re on the nice list every year Stephanie. Thank you!"

"I have been with Statefarm for over 20 years and since James Carlton came on board, I had never had more interaction and caring to my insurance and needs. Never before had I received regular (Yearly) updates to ensure I had everything I need and more. Recently as I was going through a claim process, I was essentially shoved to the side rather quickly, saying I did not meet deductible and there was very little "investigation" completed to assess damage. A quick call to James to vent frustration and within hours I was on track to complete the claim and had full payout to make repairs within a day or two. Awesome service."

"Thanks to James Carlton’s team, we came through successfully an experience that otherwise might have been catastrophic. All of our financial needs were met, and they were there every step of the way, particularly Stephanie Bachelder, who worked with us the most closely."

"We have had State Farm Insurance for home/auto for more than 20 years. We switched to James Carlton about 3 years ago and I can honestly say that not all State Farm agents are created equal. The experience that we have had with the James Carlton agency has been exceptional! 5 Stars is not enough. Our daughter was re-ended in March while visiting her grandmother in Florida. Stephanie who assists James took the process off our hands and literally took care of EVERYTHING! All we had to do was drive the car in to get repaired. The repair process took a long time with not being able to get parts due to COVID but Stephanie stayed on top of it the entire time. She constantly checked in and made sure we had a rental car when necessary. I can not express how impressed we were with her customer service and empathy towards our situation. On top of great customer service during the time of need, James checks in with us yearly to do a needs assessment to make sure we have what we need. This is not a pressure process where he tries to sell you anything, in fact we scaled back on some things! Everyone that we have spoken to or had assist us with his agency has been top notch and followed up just like they promised they would!"

"I have been a client of James Carlton for 1.5 now. I was recently involved in an accident where the driver didn't have insurance. Stephanie was the most helpful person in this situation. Stephanie took a situation that was very complicated and stressful and made it extremely easy. Stephanie answered any question/phone call I had every time. She was truly amazing and a life savior in this situation. I will stay as a State Farm Client for a long-time now because of the handling of this situation by Stephanie. I can not say enough good things about the level of service I received during this time."

"Earlier this summer I had a situation with a local repair shop damaging my vehicle. Long story short, a wheel came off on the highway. The shop's insurance company was dragging its feet and Stephanie really stepped up and helped get the ball rolling. Great service!!"

"I switched to James Carlton after some bad experiences with the claims process at my previous insurance carrier. I had heard great things from quite a few people, and the hype is real! James and his staff are unbelievable to work with, and, I’ve just been through my first claim through State Farm, and everything went smoothly. Of course, I hope I don’t have to go through that again anytime soon, but at least I have peace of mind that if and when I do, it will be handled in a timely and professional manner. Count me as an extremely happy customer!"

"James Carlton and team are incredible! Everyone went really above and beyond to keep me in the loop on a claim I had recently. They’re all such a pleasure to work with, and I have to give a big shout out to both Stephanie and Barbara for all of their personal help. Thank you all so much!"

"The personal service is always outstanding from everyone on the team. I used State Farm for home and auto for years. When I had a unique need, Barbara went above and beyond to help me find where to get the right coverage, even if she couldn't provide it through State Farm. They really look out for their customers."
